                        I. ENGINE SAFETY  eonda  engines are designed to give  safe  and  dependable  service if oper-  ated  according to instructions. Read and  understand  this  Owner’s  Manual  before  operating  the  engine.  Failure  to  do so could  result in per-  sonal  injury  or  equipment  damage.  To prevent  fire  hazards  and to provide  adequate  ventilation,  keep  the  engine  at  least 1 meter (3 feet)  away  from  buildings  and  other equip-  ment  during  operation. Do not  place  flammable  objec

                        3. BATTERY  CONNECTIONS  (for electric starter)  Use a 12 volt  battery with an  ampere-hour  rating of at  least 18 AH.  Connect  the  battery  positive (+) cable to  the starter  solenoid  terminal, as  shown.  Connect  the  battery  negative (-1 cable to an  engine  mounting  bolt,  frame  bolt,  or  other  good  engine  ground  connection.  Check  the  battery  cable  connections to be  sure  the  cables are secured  and  free of corrosion.  Remove  any  corrosion and coat  the  terminals  a

                        4. REMOTE CONTROL LINKAGE  (for throttle and choke cables)  The  throttle  and  choke  control  levers are provided with holes for  optional  cable  attachment.  The  following  illustrations  show  installation  examples  for a solid  wire  cable  and  for a braided  wire  cable. If using a  braided wire  cable,  add a return  spring  as  shown.  It is  necessary to loosen  the  throttle  lever  friction nut when  operating  the  throttle with a remote  cable.  [Remote  throttle]  THROTTLE LEVE

                        5. PRE-OPERATION CHECK  I. ENGINE OIL  I NOTICE 1  Engine  oil  is a major factor  affecting engine  performance  and  service  life.  Non-detergent oils  and  vegetable  oils  are not recommended.  Be  sure to check the engine  on a  level surface with the engine  stopped.  i  Use  Honda  4-stroke  oil  or  an  equivalent  high-detergent,  premium  I  quality  motor  oil  certified  to  meet or  2OW-40.2OW-56  I 1 I  exceed U.S. automobile  manufac-  turer's  requirements  for  Service  Cla'ssi

                        2. REDUCTION GEAR OIL (Only on equipped model)    1. Remove  the  oil  filler  cap  and  wipe  the  dipstick  clean.  2. Insert  the  dipstick  into  the  filler  neck  but  do  not  screw it in.  3. If the  level  is low, fill  to  the upper  level  mark with the same  oil recom-  mended for the engine  (see  engine  oil  recommendations  on page 7).

                        3. AIR CLEANER  Never run the engine without  the air cleaner. Rapid  engine wear  will result from  contaminants, such  as dust and dirt, being drawn through  the: carburetor and into  the engine.  'I   Check  the air  cleaner  elements to be  ..' sur~e  they are clean  and in good  con-  diti~on.  Clean  or  replace  the  elements  if necessary  (p.22).  ELEMENTS    1.

                        4. FUEL  Your  engine  is  designed to use  any  gasoline that has a pump  octane  number ( ‘2 ) of 86 or  higher,  or that has a research  oc-  tanle number  of 91 or  higher.  Gasoline  pumps at service  station  normally  display  the  pump  octane  number.  We recommend  that  you  use  unleaded  fuel  because it produces fewer  engine  and  spark  plug  deposits  and  extends the  life of exhaust  system  components.  NeGer use  stale or contaminated  gasoline or an oil/gasoline  mixture.

                        GASOLINES CONTAINING ALCOHOL  If  you decide to use a gasoline  containing  alcohol  (gasohol), be sure its oc-  tane  rating is at least as high as that recommended by Honda. There are  two types  of "gasohol": one containing  ethanol, and the other  containing  methanol. Do not use gasohol that contains  more  than 10% ethanol. Do  not use gasoline  containing  methanol  (methyl or wood alcohol) that does  not also contain  cosolvents and corrosion  inhibitors  for  methanol. Never  use gasoli

Return it gently  to  prevent  damage  to  the  starter.  STARTER GRIP  0 With electric  starter:  Turn  the  engine  switch  to  the START position  and  hold it there  until  the  engine  starts.  Do not use  the  electric  starter  for  more  than 5 seconds  or  starter  motor  damage  may  occur. If the  engine  falls to start,  release

                        0il.Alert System  The  Oil  Alert  system  is  designed  to  prevent  engine  damage  caused by an  insufficient  amount  of  oil in the  crankcase.  Before  the  oil  level in the  crankcase  can  fall  below  a  safe  limit,  the Oil Alert  system  will  automatical-  ly shut  down  the  engine  (the  engine  switch  will  remain in the ON position).  If the  Oil  Alert  system  shuts  down  the engine, the  Oil  Alert  lamp  will  flash  when  you  operate  the  starter,  and  the  engine  wi
